To be honest I think fishing is the easiest way to get crystals. Not gonna lie it’s kinda hard to get leach blood and a bit hard to get tree sap if your new, but fishing is a non threatening life way to get em.

Up if you found it helpful

Up if u think that crystal wyverns should have weight reduction on these

They obviously should

If you are early to mid game then I suggest going up the volcano on the island

(I play ark mobile) as on top it has all the obsidian,metal and crystal you want. The volcanoe is much better than caves to get crystal I think because you dont have to think about all the possible threats as once on top off the volcano I found that there were no dangerous animals. I could suggest building a base their because off all the crystal and material but it would probably be late game

⬆️ this if you found it helpfull

On the island, there is a little mountain near the footpaw I think that has a few small crystal nodes. It isn’t much, but in the early game it’s the easiest source of crystal for spyglasses and water jars

Swamp

Use an anky with high melee to maximize crystal

WHERE DO U GET CRYSTAL ON ARK MOBILE PLS TELL ME

I find it funny that a pick is th best

Magma is much better. Takes a lot more than anky. Trust me. I trust what dododex say until a friend told me to prove a magma and there is a huge difference. much much better
